The Taming Of The Shoes

I'm already in the future
I'm still right where you left me
I'm already old enough to tie my shoes

I subscribed to Time for a little while
But Time passed on and I slept through the wake
And when I woke up  I opened my eyes
  to the lies and the cries and goodbyes of the fake

I'm still right in the future
I'm back at square one
I'm already outgrowing my dancing shoes

I subscribed to Time for a little while
But Time passed on and I slept through the wake
And when I woke up  I opened my eyes
  to the lies and the cries and goodbyes of the fake

I'm tired of the future
I'm waiting for you to come
I'm already wearing out my walking shoes

I subscribed to Time for a little while
But Time passed on and I slept through the wake
And when I woke up  I opened my eyes
  to the lies and the cries and goodbyes of the fake

I'm abandoning the future
I'm trying not to cry
I'm already too old to find my shoes
